Question

Decide whether the following statement makes sense​ (or is clearly​ true) or does not make sense​ (or is clearly​ false). Explain your reasoning. Brandon discovered that his daily routine of buying a slice of pizza and a soda at lunch was costing him more than ​$1900 per year.

Answer 1

This statement makes sense since eating pizza and a soda on a daily basis means that you purchased at least 365 slice of pizza and 365 sodas. If we divide $1,900 by 365 = $5.21 per day spent in pizza and soda. That is a completely plausible amount of money if you consider how much a slice of pizza or a soda costs.

Even though pizza prices are not the same around the country, it is not hard to find a pizza place that sells one slice plus a soda for something between $5 and $6.
